J/111 OWNER MANUAL 11
•
Insert all stanchions into the sockets provided along the edge of the deck. Secure each stanchion in
place by tightening the two screws in each base. We recommend that you dip the screws in blue
Loctite or sealant before securing, so they don’t work themselves loose over time. For stanchions with
inboard braces, the fasteners will need to be installed for each brace.
•
Install all lifelines without tightening the turnbuckles. Remove the eyes at the ends of the lifelines and
thread them through the stanchions. If the boat is equipped with the optional lifeline pads, thread the
lifeline through these prior to attaching to stern rail. The longer lifeline pad will be sized for the upper
lifeline and the shorter for the lower lifeline.
•
Finish off the job by tightening the turnbuckles, adjusting the lifeline gate pendants for the proper
length, and taping off the turnbuckle “split rings” (or cotter pins) for a secured finished appearance.
Skylight Ventilation Hatch : is made of extruded anodized aluminum and scratch-resistant acrylic cover.
The hatch comes equipped with a ventilation position and 180 degree articulation.
Fixed Acrylic Portlights are pre-installed and sealed. Owners should take great care not to use any
abrasive or harsh cleaners on these ports. Specific cleaning instructions from the manufacturer are
included in the appendix.
Opening Ports : are of painted aluminum frames with scratch-resistant acrylic and arrive “ready-to-use”.
DO NOT PERMIT ACETONE OR OTHER HARSH CLEANSERS TO GET ON PORTS OR HATCHES
AS THEY MAY DAMAGE THE FINISH & CLARITY OF SOME DECK HARDWARE.
Deckhouse Handrails: Stainless handrails are standard for secure maneuvering on deck and ease of
maintenance.
Winches: Standard winches are aluminum self-tailing models from Harken. The location of these
winches facilitates sailing with one or two aboard. Each is geared to match the load requirements of the
specific task.
J/111 Steering System
The steering system is carefully engineered to provide finger-tip control. This is achieved by utilizing high
quality Jefa rudder bearings and Edson steering system components. The pedestal is custom designed
and incorporates molded foot-rests, a Ritchie compass and a stainless wheel guard.
Wheel: is a 60” diameter Edson SS Destroyer wheel with a thru shaft brake knob and leather cover.
Rudder & Rudder Shaft: The J/111 rudder is a carefully molded e-glass foil with structural foam core and
built on precision tooling with a custom carbon fiber rudder shaft. The system is engineered to exceed
ABS Scantlings and all applicable ISO standards. The high aspect shape helps reduce the “torque”
tendency of most rudders, thereby reducing helmsman and auto-pilot fatigue.
Rudder Stock Seal: is located at the top of the lower rudder bearing. It is a simple flexible boot type
design that prevents water from entering the hull.
Emergency Tiller: is operated by spinning off the access cover on the cockpit floor and placing the base
of the emergency tiller over the head of the rudder stock. Rudder is rotated by attaching two lines to spare
blocks outboard and then forward to winches. Fit the emergency tiller NOW to see how the system works
BEFORE you get caught in a situation where you won’t have time!
